38 Studios dev shares first screenshots of Project Copernicus

XMNR: It's been a long rough week and a half for the employees of 38 Studios but one developer shared screenshots of "Project Copernicus" late Wednesday night to show what he's been working on for the last few years.

Without wanting to be overly pessimistic, it's already over for them. Nobody is going to stick around for another year to finish the game while not getting paid.

The most upsetting aspect of this is that it didn't have to be this way. 38 Studios should have just stayed in Massachusetts and kept their debt level at a minimum. Unfortunately a 70 million dollar carrot is too strong a lure. Both sides of that equation are guilty of poor planning.
